At the Beach

From an e-mail to a friend:

I went to the beach today. It was very sunny, but also very windy. Still, it was beautiful and so nice to get out of the apartment. I crave the beach now. I want to go everyday, and I think it's because I get cabin fever. I plan on going to the beach all summer.

As I was laying out, a scrap of a verse came to me, "[Your thoughts] out number the grains of sand," and suddenly I felt very secure, very hopeful about this pregnancy and my baby. I looked down at the sand and thought, "My baby is one of these thoughts," and I felt the overwhelming proficiency of God.
